Enjoying the fruits of the orchard

PEOPLE who call to The Apple Farm in the heartland of Tipperary to purchase fresh fruit and juices are vital to the revenue buoyancy of the business.

Most of the customers are from the region which has an apple growing tradition going back 150 years.

But others are passing motorists, who swing off the busy Cahir to Clonmel road at Moorstown, knowing that their taste buds will be tickled with a wide choice including pears, plums, sweet cherries, strawberries and raspberries, as well as apples.
